Chapter 342 - My Empress
The following day, Hailee woke up early in the morning. After wearing her sports attire, she and Vince went to the Gym building.
It was a two story building away from the mansion and the greenhouse. The trees hid this place.
"Stand behind me, Wifey," said Vince before he opened the four-foot-tall gate. Immediately, three canine dogs jump at Vince.
"Hubby!" Hailee was surprised, but only a bit, because she had a lot of dogs back in Sydney and Perth. What only alarmed her, she didn't expect that there were dogs to be freed and staying around this area which has fences.
"Sit!" Vince ordered the three dogs, and he turned to Hailee and introduced the three golden retrievers.
"Listen to me, girl, buddies...." Vince began; it amuses Hailee, watching him talking to the three dogs. "Meet your mom, Hailee."
Hailee smiled, waved at the dogs who barked at her, like recognizing she would be their mom from now on.
"These are Lane and Kane…" Vince first introduced the two males among the three dogs, and before he introduced the female one, he looked at Hailee lovingly.
"Hm?" she wondered if she had to do something like pet Lane and Kane's head, but Vince only curled his lips.
"I want you to meet Halle."
"Oh…" 'Is Vince naming the dog after her?'
Vince widened his smile as he could guess what Hailee was thinking at the moment.
"If you thought she was named after you? The answer is yes. Halle is four years old today."
"Wow. Really?" It surprised her but knowing all of this warmed her heart. She squatted and pet Halle. "Hi, Halle! I'm your mom, Hailee! How are you?"
The dog stays seated still on the pavement, letting Hailee pet her. Later on, Halle stood and began licking her face. Hailee tickles, and so she giggles.
"Good girl!"
The two male golden retrievers rush to Hailee. They also begin licking their mom, but Vince quickly separates them from her.
"That's enough, boys! You can't do that to your mom. Also, you can't jump on her whenever you see her because she is pregnant."
Lane and Kane looked at Vince with sad faces. Hailee cannot stop herself hugging both after seeing their cute reaction when Vince lectured them.
"Look, Lane and Kane. I have three babies inside me. When I give birth to them, they can play with you guys!"
The three dogs bark. They seemed to understand her truly.
Hailee looked up at Vince with marvel in her eyes. She was amazed that Vince trained them reasonably, not to mention that the female dog was named after her.
Vince helps Hailee to stand. "You guys stay here." He then ordered the dogs.
Halle ran to her throne and lay down on the soft bed, crossing her front feet, while Kane and Lane played around.
Hailee was too amused. "They really listen to you, huh?"
"Yeah. They grew up riding with me in the car and bringing the ones when I ran around the village. They have to behave, or I will not bring them, especially when I sail off."
"Oh."
"Yeah. And I didn't bring them in the penthouse for the reason I might have slipped my mouth and confessed that Halle is after your name."
Hailee chuckled at how cute Vince was in her eyes while saying all of this... "They were behaving well."
"We have more dogs, but they were the mischief ones. It will not be good to hang around them with your delicate pregnancy. Soon we will visit their house."
"Okay. I want to meet them all." She grew up with pets, and dogs are too close to her heart. Soon, their children will also have their pet, but she is praying it won't be allergic to fur.
After Vince introduced the three dogs to her, they now entered the building.
There is a ten-meter-long swimming pool on the first floor, then a room with all kinds of workout tools and machines, then a separate shower area.
There is also a glass pantry room facing the garden.
On the second floor is the sacred place for the Shen. Since the entire room was a wooden floor, Vince took off his shoes, so she did the same.
Hailee gasps in astonishment the moment she enters the room.
Vince told her that Halee, Kane, and Lane were actually the guardians of these places. She understood now.
Weapons hang on the walls, and there are also swords and daggers placed in glass boxes.
Vince stretched his left arm toward her. Hailee took it quickly and followed him, walking toward those glass boxes and showed them one by one.
"My ancestors owned them. A few of these swords were from the war. I thought my family was just warriors, and I didn't know we were the royal ones…."
"The Imperial family, to be exact." Hailee corrected Vince.
Vince's eyes are gleaming while looking at Hailee. He walked to the front and wrapped her body inside his arms, planted a kiss on her hair, then murmured before he covered her lips.
"My Empress…"
Hailee quickly responds to the kiss. She placed her arms around Vince's neck to deepen their kisses.
It was Vince who first stopped the kiss, and he had to part their lips before he lost control again. Last night's scenes still appear in his head, which stirs his cravings to shower, to run his mouth in every inch of Hailee's body.
"Wait here, Wifey." Vince headed to a door; she wasn't sure what kind of room that was.
As she was left alone, her eyes traveled to every corner of this practice room. The place somehow gives peace of mind.
She could imagine Vince spending his spare time meditating and practicing martial arts. When Vince said he'd show her his sword dance, she was excited to watch him.
After five minutes, Vince came back with two yoga mats he then placed on the floor.
Hailee didn't take her eyes away from Vince. He was now only wearing loose pants and bare in his upper body.
'Is he going to perform a sword dance, or is he seducing me?'
Hailee had this silly thought in her head while her eyes wandered to that luscious body of her husband.
"Come here, Wifey."
She somewhat understood why Vince prepared these mats instead. In the next half hour, Vince accompanied her, doing the morning exercise. He frequently steals a kiss from her, so she could not concentrate on her workout that was taught for pregnancy.
Finally, Vince behaves, and they resume her routine.
After that, Vince is now standing in the middle of the room, and he is already warming up, so he is good to go to start his martial arts moves.
Hailee didn't blink, watching Vince doing the movements of his techniques. Vince is sweating a lot after he finishes practicing. But that was just the basics.
Vince walked toward the wall and took the spear. Next, Hailee was like watching a live-action while the hero was practicing his moves.
Every movement of Vince's muscles, the more she drools. This can actually bring danger to her. She could not stop recalling Vince's sweat body above her those times they made love.
Hailee was grateful that Vince was drawn to his world while he swung the spear in his hands. He didn't see her expression of fantasizing about him.
Gladly he was now her husband, or what a sin to crave at someone's husband.
Vince was now finished practicing with a spear. He walked to one of the glass boxes and took out the sword, and he pulled the blade out of the sheath, and then began doing the dragon sword dance.
It amazed her too much, watching Vince moving so smoothly, like a wind. She could hear a chimed from the sword.
She could now imagine Vince teaching their children with these moves. The martial arts and sword dance. She cannot stop herself from picturing the mini Vinces' copying their dad making these moves.
God! She knew they would all look cute!
Vince stopped when he noticed Hailee wiping her eyes. "Wifey? What's wrong?" It worried him when Hailee suddenly cried.
On the other hand, Hailee did not care if Vincent was drenched with sweat, and she liked his scent, anyway.
"There's nothing wrong. I'm just happy."
Vince remained silent as he pondered. 'Is her mood swings triggered by something?'
"You made me worry, Wifey. Look… My body is soaking wet with..."
"Hmm… I am fine. I just can't stop wishing that I already gave birth to our children. I imagine you teaching them these martial arts would look so cute."
Vince was stunned for a moment, and then his lips curled into a warm smile. He surely would love to teach all of their children. Even their daughters must also learn defense, like their mom, who is actually good at using guns.
"I am also looking forward to meeting our princes and princesses, and I will teach them all I know."
"Hmm…" All the words stuck inside her mouth when Vince covered her mouth with his.
"Let's make love here…." he whispered between kisses.
Hailee was stunned for a moment. She could feel her mouth drop open.
The kiss they shared was intense; she didn't notice that she was now riding on top of Vince.
Peering down at him, she asked, "But, isn't it prohibited as this place is sacred?"
"Why not? You were carrying my heir. The future emperor…."
Hailee did not protest anymore after Vincent successfully persuaded her…
Honestly, she felt a lot of thrills thinking about it—having sneaky love-making in that room...
